Charlotte!

My Charlotte Koigu has arrived from Threadbear Fiber Arts Studio!

Koigu!

Gorgeous! I kept rubbing it against my cheek; the material is absolutely delightful. After I unwound the ball, I worked out with Mike the order of the colors for my web. This is our result:

My Charlotte Colors

I explained that the colors towards the bottom are the dominant ones for the piece, since they are the largest wedges. I knew the bright yellow needed to be down there, with the darkest shade next to it, for contrast. I originally had the light blue-heavy skein at the bottom, but Mike rightly corrected that choice and now the purple is the last color. The light blue skein was placed on the other side of the darkest shade, for contrast, and the other purple skein was placed at top. Loverly! Absolutely loverly! Pansy is going to rock my socks off.

For the ones who really want to know, the colorways are (from top to bottom):
P521
P403
P429? (Not sure about this one.)
P330
P407

All in KPPPM. Yum. I've strung them up and they are hanging from a hook in the doorway between my study and the living room. I can't wait to tackle it!
